Sasaki has been an absolute flop in the UFC
Prediction: wrong Gates wrong KO/TKO wrong Round 1
Agreed with wolfman above, Sasaki was such a promising prospect that a lot of people wanted to see in the UFC. A quick but equally underwhelming win over Delorme gave way to two bad losses in a row in which he was the relatively high favorite in both.
Gates has mass potential with more improvement, and I think he gets the knockout win.

That said, the heart wants what it wants so I'm going with Yuta and praying he can take it to the ground and dominate.
Will-picking never works out for me, but it's a stupid thing I do from time to time :)

I just see his TD as kinda week and Gates is explosive and athletic. He could bounce right up or be too hard to take down with early explosive finish b
I Gambled in Gates but if Sasaki gets him down in a position of control, Gates is proper ******.
